	A flagship beer, Cantillon Gueuze is the backbone of the Cantillon lineup and one of the most common bottlings to find. Over the years its label has changed several times, and there are generally two to three labels for Classic Gueuze used at a time. The imported version to the U.S. from Shelton Brothers used the classic yellow label, while the European versions use the Manneken Pis labeling. In 2014, Cantillon introduced the newest label for their gueuze which has the Belgian flag as the back drop. In 2021, the label was redesigned again with a black & white background and a gold foil stamped logo.

	It should be pointed out that there is no difference between the U.S version of "Classic Gueuze" and the 100% Bio/Organic bottlings. The labeling differences stem from different requirements by the United States versus the European Union in declaring a product organic. Cantillon currently does not meet U.S standards, but Cantillon notes on its website that it has used 100% organically grown grain for its lambics since 1999.
